Coasting
The concept The system helps to conserve fuel.
To do this, under certain conditions the engine
is automatically decoupled from the transmis‐ sion when selector lever position D is set. The
vehicle continues traveling with the engine
idling to reduce fuel consumption. Selector
lever position D remains engaged.
This driving condition is referred to as coasting.
As soon as the brake or accelerator pedal is de‐
pressed, the engine is automatically coupled to
the transmission again.
Information
Coasting is a component of the GREEN driving
mode, refer to page 165.
Coasting is automatically activated when
GREEN mode is called via the Driving Dynamics
Control, refer to page 117.
The function is available in a certain speed
range.
A proactively driving style helps the driver to
use the function as often as possible and sup‐
ports the fuel-conserving effect of coasting.
Safety mode
The function is not available under one of the
following conditions.▷DSC OFF or TRACTION activated.▷Driving in the dynamic limit range and on
steep uphill or downhill grades.▷Battery charge status temporarily too low
or vehicle electrical system drawing exces‐
sive current.▷Cruise control activated.
Functional requirements
In GREEN mode, this function is available in a
speed range from approximately 30 mph, ap‐
prox. 50 km/h to 100 mph, approx. 160 km/h,
if the following conditions are met:
▷Accelerator pedal and brake pedal are not
operated.▷The selector lever is in selector lever posi‐
tion D.▷Engine and transmission are at operating
temperature.Seite 168DRIVING TIPSSaving fuel168

egories. The bonus range achieved by driving
style that minimizes fuel consumption is dis‐
played below the table of values.
The fish and the movements of the water in the
glass symbolize the efficiency of the driving
style. The more efficient the driving style, the
less the water sloshes around in the glass and
the better is the fish's mood, arrow 1.
The table of values includes asterisks, arrow 2.
The more efficient the driving style, the more
stars are included in the table and the faster
the bonus range increases, arrow 3.
If by contrast the driving style is inefficient, the
water oscillates, the mood of the fish is sullied
and a reduced number of asterisks is displayed.
To assist with an efficient driving style, GREEN
tips are displayed during driving.
Tips about the energy saving driving style, Con‐
serving fuel, refer to page 164.Seite 170DRIVING TIPSSaving fuel170

Engine oilVehicle features and op‐
tions
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems. The respectively applicable country provi‐
sions must be observed when using the respec‐
tive features and systems.
General information The engine oil consumption is dependent on
the driving style and driving conditions.
The engine oil consumption can increase in the
following situations, for example:▷Sporty driving style.▷Break-in of the engine.▷Idling of the engine.▷With use of engine oil types that are not ap‐
proved.
Therefore, regularly check the engine oil level
after refueling.
The vehicle is equipped with electronic oil
measurement.
The electronic oil measurement has two meas‐
uring principles:
▷Status display.▷Detailed measurement.Electronic oil measure‐
ment
Status display
The concept
The engine oil level is monitored electronically
while driving and shown on the Control Display.
If the engine oil level reaches the minimum
level, a check control message is displayed.
RequirementsA current measured value is available after ap‐
prox. 30 minutes of driving. During a shorter
trip, the status of the last, sufficiently long trip is
displayed.
With frequent short-distance trips, perform a
detailed measurement.
Displaying the engine oil level On the Control Display:1. "Vehicle info"2."Vehicle status"3. "Engine oil level"
Engine oil level display messagesDifferent messages appear on the display de‐
pending on the engine oil level. Pay attention
to these messages.
If the engine oil level is too low within the next
125 miles/200 km, add engine oil, refer to
page 196.
CAUTION
A too low engine oil level causes engine
damage. There is risk of property damage. Im‐
mediately add engine oil. ◀
Take care not to add too much engine oil.
